Time 50m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 13

6 ounces butter (room temperature)
4 tablespoons sugar
2 ounces almonds (ground blanched, 6 tablespoons)
1/2 teaspoon lemon zest (grated)
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
2 large egg yolks (hard-boiled, sieved)
1 large egg yolk (raw)
Pinch salt
Pinch cinnamon
6 ounces apricot preserves
6 ounces raspberry preserves (or cherry preserves)
1 whole egg
Confectioners' sugar (for dusting)

Steps:

  • Gather the ingredients.
  • Cream together butter and sugar with an electric mixer until light and fluffy.
  • By hand, stir in almonds, zest , flour, making sure to measure flour correctly , and the two hard-cooked egg yolks.
  • Add raw egg yolk, salt, and cinnamon, and mix into a smooth dough. This entire process, from step 1, can be done in a food processor, if you prefer.
  • Place dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
  • Heat oven to 375 F. Cut off 1/3 dough and return, wrapped, to the refrigerator. Roll out 2/3 dough and place on an 8-inch-by-11-inch tart pan with a removal bottom or a small sheet pan. Pierce or "dock" the dough with the tines of a fork.
  • In a small bowl, make an egg wash by whisking together the 1 whole egg with 1 teaspoon water.
  • Roll out remaining 1/3 dough and cut into 1/4-inch strips. Arrange strips lattice-style over dough. Brush lattice strips with the egg wash.
  • Bake for 20 to 30 minutes, or until light golden brown and crisp.
  • Allow to cool completely. Place pastry on a serving plate and spoon fruit preserves alternately into the open spaces of the lattice work. Sprinkle lightly with confectioners' sugar.

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 ½ cups unsalted butter, at room temperature
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature

MAZURKI



Mazurki image

This recipe comes direct from the Food Network Kitchens, and was presented as an Around-the-World cookie theme for 2007 Christmas --HOWEVER--Mazurki are actually an Easter tradition in Poland, the culmination of a days-long food fest. If you're not a stickler for tradition, they make a lovely, bejeweled presentation on a cookie platter: a shortbread base hosting a gleaming assortment of dried fruits. Although it's not part of the recipe, I always soak my raisins, craisins and other chewy dried fruits in warm water and brandy for about 15 minutes for a better effect in baking. Busy baker's tips: When double-wrapped, the cookie base keeps at room temperature for 3 days or frozen for 1 month. The fruit compote can be made up to 1 week ahead and refrigerated. Store completed cookies in an airtight container, layers separated with parchment paper, for up to 5 days. Enjoy! This is a favorite holiday recipe in my home.

MAZURKAS (POLAND)



Mazurkas (Poland) image

We tasted cookies from all over Eastern Europe, and these bars really stood out - they were beautiful, satisfying, sweet and colorful, and the dried fruit really sings Christmas. They're usually made on Christmas Eve, but their portability would make them great for bake sales or cookie swaps.
